Banana Peanut Butter Bread

Breakfast is often a struggle in our household.  Traditional breakfast foods don't appeal to all members of our house (I'm not judging--I'm one of those who would eat pizza or chili for breakfast).  This little recipe helps solve the problem for us. . .tasty enough to be eaten by all but with enough healthy stuff mixed in that I don't feel too guilty for serving it.

Banana Peanut Butter Bread

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups white sugar
4 eggs
1 cup peanut butter
4 bananas, mashed
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup oats
2 tablespoons of wheat germ
2 teaspoon baking soda
1 12 oz bag of mini chocolate chip morsels

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs; beat well. Stir in peanut butter, bananas, flour, oats and baking soda until blended. Fold in chips. Pour into prepared pan.

Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
